PT Questions About Hardware

[EliteNinja]

Hypothetical Question:

If you have PT installed on your computer and you have a hardware problem for any given reason and have to redownload/reinstall it, do you need to pay another $55 to REbuy it? What happens if this situation occurs?

Also, how slow is it when you have a large database?

I have a Pentium III - 500MHz computer with 256MB RAM and not much hard drive space. Also, it's so old I'm worried it'll explode due to age.

(And yes, I already envision replies within the lines of "GET A NEW COMPUTER, FOOL!")
